OUT ON FRIDAY AGAIN, UP TO A LOW LEVEL SET OF CRAGS, JUST TO BE OUT REALLY, COOKED A LOVELY MEAL IN THIS, AND TALKED A LOT OF RUBBISH, I GOT SOME SHELTER IN THE CRAGS BUT IT WAS WHEN THE WIND CHANGED DIRECTION AGAIN, IT WAS HITTING THE LARGE PANEL. TENT WAS OK I JUST LIKE TO KEEP THE DOOR OPEN MOSTLY, SO I HAD TO ZIP UP. A BIT TAMER THAN THE LAST VIDEO, BUT ALL THE SNOW IS GONE. OUT AGAIN SOON HOPEFULLY
Good stuff mate - nice location too! But listen, it's not safe to drink beer when out camping okay? You shouldn't be doing it - you might get drunk and enjoy yourself. Please stop.
I will quit instantly. It’s done. No more beer. Send beer.
It’s wearing off 😂
Totally agree mate, why people feel the need to criticise when people enjoy a drink really gets on my nerves. MCM Chris gets the same aggro. Anyways always enjoy your videos pal, keep it up lad. 👍
Oh and good vid,😂😂 bring back the impressions😂😂😂
No 😂 😂
Andy, you don't have to justify ya actions kids, we are not forced to watch you and you are not deemed liable for your adventure actions, drink, play music, dance, it's all in the name of entertainment, a man's version of an event!, ask for some down bootoes and get them reviewed, I'm in the market for some!
😂 I just had a bit rant mate. Was needed. I basically do what I like in all aspects of life.
Down booties are for the weak. 😂 I have some Rab hot socks like. Not bad. Also the summit series bridgedale socks are good. It’s almost summer maybe they’ll send me some in June 😂 usual craic.
Catch ya later. 👍
You reminded me of someone with that hood up and face covered. Cant quite put my finger on it but for some reason im getting a cop and a hillbilly come to mind 🤔
Great video as always, Andy 👍
😂 the hill villain. 🦹♀️
Yeah it was hood time up there. It might not look it but it was freezing. When I stood up the wind hit. It was a good sheltered pitch.
Cheers for watching atb 👍
Andy - I don't think anyone gives a monkey's left testicle how many beers you take on a camp (as long as it's an even number!) you do you mate. UA-cam is free and people put their stuff up because they want to - if someone doesn't like it, watch something else! Am sure the temperance wildcamping crew are great craic 🤣
😂 everyone can do whatever they want. I might go and comment on people who don’t drinks videos. 😂
Don't let the alcohol police get get to you mate,let them have a week working with the grey stuff like we do,they would soon do the same 😂....sleeping pad...silver side up,so it reflects the heat back to you.great video as always,catch you soon
Cheers Steve. Aye it gets tedious like. Covered in crap all week 😂 I think it’s right. Silver up. It was warmer this time. Makes sense really. New one to try out next. Bold claims so we will see. Atb Marra. 👍
A good camp Andy . An interesting pitch . From I was a teenager I always had music when I went camping, an old radio which did the job. Glad you hadca relaxing camp. Best wishes.
Cheers. Yeah I like my music. Not crazy music. Just nice relaxing sounds. Nice and chilled. 👍
Too early for a beer? Disgusting comment! 😂 cracking pitch Andy
😂 yes. You’re correct
It’s never too early.
Good spot this. My second visit. Handy for a quickie ooh 😧
@@AndyWardle 🤣, I’ve got a wee last min set of hills I go too aswell. Can’t have a mountain for every camp
@@summittaedae2323 yeah the Cheviots have a good mix. Big hills and cheeky overnighters. 👌
You need to put some wd40 on that creaking pack.
It’s getting replaced. Anyway it’s my knees not the pack 😂
Did you sling in the smashed pasty? That cook set is still big.. just saying... Just needs to start warming up dunt it... Always cold, windy or wet... Keep doin it boozer
I scoffed the pasty 😂 hoping for better weather like. But it’s not coming.
The cookset is big. But like I say. Look what I can fit inside it. There’s loads more space in the bottom pocket of my bag now. I’m also going to start using a smaller 58 litre pack. What does that tell ya?? 😉
@@AndyWardle tells me it'll be tight with that cook set and a battery pack... 😉
@@BoredManOutdoors 😂 the battery will sit on the top obviously 😂
Enjoy those ales.
Aye but that was the drop of dooooom. Ya survived thankfully. 🤣🤣😉
Yeah I’m always careful it’s all just an act 😂
@@AndyWardle 🤣🤣😉 Nowt better than canny scran n ales in the wilds, mind you mash n carrots would have went down a treat. 🤣😉
Wild camping and a few "IPA's" go hand in hand brother👍
I’m in that camp. 😂
Sorry mate it’s liquid fuel my mistake.👍🏴🏴🍺
😂 yeah it’s much more economical 👌
You enjoy pal bugger the rest pal
Ahh I just felt a bit miffed. Everyone is different. But shouldn’t judge. It’s not like I’m a big channel.
👍
Nice one Andy cracking spot and the your dinner looked banging !
So question time !!!
What do you think of the vern 1 ??🤔🤔
Cheers G
Cheers Graham. Food was my best yet. Needed mash like.
The vern 1 ?? Dunno mate. It looks nice. Roomy. And well made. But it needs a proper bashing. I’m watching the vids with interest. See how it performs. Could be a winner. It’s no black label soulo beater though 😂 😂
@@AndyWardle
I can see you in one !
I want to to love it !!!
as it’s cheaper the the soulo and then I might buy one 👍✅🤣🤣
@@grahamscothern4319 tell them to send me one then 😂 😂
@@AndyWardle
📞📞📞🤣🤣✅👍
Atb G
Makes me laugh.....loads of lightweight gear and then 5 cans of beer 😅 have fun 👍
Point out the lightweight gear. 😂 😂 I hate lightweight camping. It’s pointless. If you can’t carry it then don’t do it. 👍
Ace video mate, love the banter! The impressions made me laugh last week and I did think you were sailing close to the mark but still funny. Gonna subscribe to your van channel, didnt know you had one.
😂 yeah I’m stopping impressions now. I only know the inappropriate ones 😂
Aye van channel was just a side line. But it’s doing ok. Cheers. 👍
Lol that was so funny, getting the critics told about the drinking and then you realised your living on the edge!! Haha classic that Andy!
The way I see it, your a grown man, your making videos that you want to make on your channel, nobody should be telling you what you should and shouldn't be doing mate.
Listen, I get told I should do a full vegan food video cause I skinned and ate a squirrel mate! You do what you want to do on your excellent channel Andy.
The power banks are a must in the van mate and I can see how happy you are to have it. I'm gonna go watch your review now matey as I'm interested in that too.
What a stunning pitch mate, I'm wanting to get into a little photography a day where you pitched with that little fence would have made a brilliant photo.
Top food but send potatoes and carrot next time 😆
Yeah mate I do my own thing. You either like it or not. I’m easy about all that. Power bank on 50% after my fridge was running from Friday to Sunday. Very impressive. It’s really picturesque up the Cheviots like. You’re right about the gate too. I used rice in my next cooking extravaganza 😂. Atb mate. 👍
It's the weekend, chill. Stunning views!
Yeah work all week. Earn a few beers. That’s my philosophy 👌
I’d rather have impressions than hear you shit your pants 😂
😂 I was impersonating an old person. 😂
Always enjoy your explots 😂👍👍👍
Shenanigans 😂. Not everyone does mind 😂 😂 👍
That was a great pitch! You made the most of the gloomy weather mate! Enjoy your ales, I know I do 😂. ATB
Yeah. I’m taking some back every trip now. Better to have too many than not enough 👌
off subject but I see that wasn't you on the local news taking samples of the dodgy concreate at the schools 🤔just perfected my blot impression RICEICCLES 🤣
😂 no. We tested all that when it was poured. Just made all the results up. Disclaimer. “I’m kidding” someone is in bother though.
Impressions are done now. It’s a new start next video. I’m going to be teetotal and dead serious. 🧐
😂 Atb mate.
aye right 🤣
@@thegeordiefellwalker8878 😂
I'm sure people mentioning you carrying 6 beers are only worried about you.
Next time, carry 8, and that should stop them worrying about you running out 🍺 😁
Or they haven’t the muscles 💪 😂
I brought 2 back. That’s the third trip in a row. Maybe there’s a hint here 🤔
Be honest, how many times did you step in that puddle right outside the door 😄
Zero. I’m trained not to do those things 😂 first time I pitched there… many 😂
Have the lot man, less to carry back to van. I've started taking Henry Weston's organic. Comes in 3ltr box so I drinks a ltr a night or two before then take the pouch with 2 ltr in top of rucksack. Think it makes any mat comfier👌
😂 if it’s cold I tend to drink less. Summer I’m always hammered like 😂. The Henry Weston’s is dual purpose. You open the box when it’s finished and use the pouch as a pillow. You can inflate it by pressing h the valve and blowing. Thank me later. 😂 👌 Atb.
@@AndyWardle wow next level that is!👌🙌
@@Northeast-SouthwestOutdoorsyep. Top tip from the renegade master.
@#andywardle another good one Mr Wardle.. drink what you want. Concerning the review's can you just review the kit that you find useful and relevant to us wild campers. People see you have knowledge and experience so they look to you for advice on kit... as you know there is some excellent budget kit as well as expensive.. just never say never when it comes to reviewing good kit please.. take care out there. Mate.
Cheers. Yeah. I’ve got that powerbank out tomorrow then I’m done with those. It’s nicely seated in my van so my van channel viewers might prefer that. I’ve a new sleep mat to try. (I get through those) and then possibly an electric bike 😂. But a lighter more user friendly one than previous.
I think there’s a new bivvy tent on the way. Which I’ll use on here. I try to avoid stand alone reviews. I like to be out using the stuff. If it fails I’ll say so. Up to now everything has been good and I’ve used it all a lot. No more torches though. Definitely 😂 thanks for watching 👍
Great to see you back out 😂. See what I did there.. I am nicking your strap line. You know what mate,you keep doing what you are doing in the way you wanna do it and no need to explain your actions to people watching this but ya know what pal, the peeps watching this watch it coz it's awesome content.. although I am missing the impressions. Lol. Shall I send you my Halfords single skin tent to test.😂. Keep up the good work pal.
😂 I’m copyrighting that phrase like every one using it.
Aye I’ll not be put off mate. I just decided I had to say something it’s been going on a while. I’m polite but can’t be pushed around 😉 impressions are done. 😂 I’ll get in bother soon. I’ll pass on the Halfords tent. I’ve got a new shelter coming soon hopefully. Lots of variety to show. Cheers for sticking with it mate. Appreciate it. Atb 👍
I enjoyed the journey you took us on with the beer discussion 😂😂😂
I can’t even remember a thing of it 😂 too pissed.
I wasnt really 😉
😂😂😂
Have you got a link to your van channel please Andy? Cheers
@andyscampervan-fj19
👍
If the link doesn’t work just search that. 👍
Good video as always, good food. As for the Beers, when its you that carries them up the mountains, you can take as many as you want and drink as many as you want lol. 😊👍🏼 🍻 🍻 🍻
I should cut back really 😂 but to hell. Cheers for watching atb 👍
I reckon Alex Honnold would've struggled getting up there...
He wouldn’t get up. 😂
Thyme is good, you should try a wine stockpot if you haven't, really lifts a stew. Another great one, thanks again. P.S. Don't let anyone lecture u on drinking, your life your choice, it ain't like you've had no practice on having a few beers on a camp lol!! x
I’m going to experiment and cook more stews. I use those marco Pierre stock things. They’re beautiful 👌 🧑🍳
Nobody can lecture me mate. Just some comments with no context. I rarely drink through the week so I let my hair down up the hills. Although lately a few cans have came home with me. What’s that all about 😂. Atb 👍
What a cracking spot for a camp!
Really good easy to reach spot. With great views. I’ll go back. 👍
Do what you want mate be happy be safe
Always do mate. Just some things need to be said lately. 👍
👍
👌 🍻
1983 Mandingo 😅👍
😂 😉
With regards to the beer I think you have a problem, the problem being you're not taking enough! Anyone would think you were a Mackem...
😂 I can’t publish this comment. I’ll upset everyone. Ahh Bollox it’s too late.
I’m trying to cut back man. See all my chins these days?? 😣 Two faces. 👌
Some chunky bread to soak up that gravy would go down a treat.
Great idea that. Damn 😂. Next time
Is that a gate on the edge of the cliff 😳.
Great video look at those stunning views.
Shame about knee if I didn't live over 300 miles away you could pop to my wee little clinic.
Great channel keep doing what you love and thanks for bringing us along😊.
Yeah it’s a “stop sheep falling” gate. It doesn’t open luckily 😂 my knees ok now. It was probably just a bit jarred. Bring your clinic up here for future mishaps. 😂 cheers for all the support. I’ll keep going until I can’t. 👍
Well the plan is to relocate at some point so you never know 😂.
@@helenamurphy4682 I’ll have 3 bad knees then 😂
🍻🍻🍻🍻🍻🍻
🍺 🍺🍺 😂
Listen if you like a beer get a beer Ffs.I do it all the time.👍🏴🏴🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🤪
I do 😂
Its grim up north but never with wor Andy
It was really grim on this. It’s not improving either. 👍
neither are the Toon but we keep going back to watch them@@AndyWardle
Get it down you Andy lad. Everything is better with a few oils 🍺 🍻🍻
😂 it’s what I wait all week for mate. Nobody is denying me. Nobody. 🥊 😂
@@AndyWardle hear hear man after my own heart 😂🍻👏
Andy u drink what you want enjoy mate I love a lager 🍺 😊
I do 😂. Only on the camps though 👌
You're very patient cooking a meal over 2 hours ....rice packet as option instead of mash ? Made me think of that Aussie " galloping gourmet " !! Will that me another channel ....the wildcamping gourmet ??!!😅
@@mickdownes9433 it was a good way to relax 🍲 I had mash to bring and forgot it 😖 that would’ve been ideal. Yeah. Graham Kerr the galloping gourmet 😂 I used to watch him like. Yes. I’m that old. 👍
That's him , I'm that old too , he used to grab someone from the audience to try his food ......you'd struggle on a solo wild camp 😂
@@mickdownes9433 I’ll grab some sheep 🐑 there’s always sheep 😂. Gourmet grass recipe.
Another good great Andy, the cooking slot is excellent, it shows what you can do in a tent up a hill with good, inexpensive kit. Thank you. Just a bit of a question, what weight are you carrying at the start of your camps? Solo + 6 beers + 2 litre water +2 kilo Pack = 9.5 kilos + other kit, were you a Sherpa in a previous life?
😂 aye I’m enjoying the cooking now. More of that to come. I still don’t know when that cookset is available. 🤷♂️ yes. I was a shepherd in previous days. Or maybe it’s the 30 years of carrying buckets of concrete about 😂 once the weight becomes an issue I’ll start cutting back. It’s average about 17-18 kgs. 👍 🫏
Feel your pain on the knee front Andy. Not sure what I’ve done to mine but it’s killing me. Just bought a knee brace to try and get me through the next few weeks. Looked a nice chilled one that Andy. 👍🏼 some decent food too 😉… take it easy. Craig
I used a Velcro strap previously on my knees. I had loads of pain. But now none.
The other weeks slip has vanished now. So probably just a strain.
Yeah I’m liking the cooking now. It’s a good way to relax.
Cheers for watching 👍
@@AndyWardle mine is the outside of one knee. Hoping this support helps. Be reete. 👍🏼 I’m too lazy to cook proper 😂
@@IntotheMountains_ sounds like what I had.
The strap really helped. 👌 6 months of it like
That went well bro and even had a water feature. Safe travels. Ken.
Aye I wouldn’t be drinking that water though 😂.
Cracking video Andy. Hi 👋 from 🇨🇦.
Cheers. Hi back from 🇬🇧 👍
Your tea's do look lush like I will give you that an hey you do the reviews to help if it's worth it too buy if people dont like it they can just skip afew mins of the vids andy 😊
Aye. I’m going to do a couple more then give it a rest for a bit.
I’m loving the stove and cooking proper food. It’s also very relaxing. Cheers for watching. Atb 👍
Andy what is that cooker you have that glows red the last time I saw you use it you were warming your hands on it 😂😂😂
Firemaple Mars radiant. I’ll be using it again. It’s really good.
Andy we all have our reward after a hike & set up tent , why bludy not !!!!!
Definitely. I’ll never change
Nowt wrang with a few beers amangst the crags 🍺🍺👍
😂 I left 2 😖😖
Spot on Andy 👍, that short steep climb always gets me, it’s horrible 🤣, canny pitch on top of the crags, always tad windy on there, but great views looking over to the Cheviot etc👌, atb Mick 👍
Yeah it’s brutal that steep bit. I keep telling myself it’s only a short one 😂 the wind turned didn’t it. Came straight in the door. Picked the right tent like. I recorded -5 wind chill. 🥶 for a short steep hike it’s well worth it for the view like. Cheers for stopping by. Atb 👍
@@AndyWardle do you think that it’s the thicker kerlon or the 10mm poles or a combo of both that help when the wind turns like that over the red label?
@@otf.outdoorsboth. The big panel hardly blows in. On the red label it was much worse.
@@AndyWardle 👍
Drink your beers with pride mandingo 🍺 you've earnt it 👍
😂 don’t worry about that 🍻 🍺
@@AndyWardle ooh yes 🤣🍺
Probably missed you saying it but where about’s did you camp in the cheviots
In the crags 😂
Between hedgehope and cold law. Housey crags 👌
Great thanks miss camping out, hope one day to get back out especially back to the cheviots. Around Wedded leap, alwinton and windy gyle we’re my favourite areas
Hi Andy, I have just realised Ur a Geordie Alkie, how dare u work all week then have one night of booze while camping a dam disgrace! These people are right instead of your enjoyment camping you should be attending your local church and praising the lord! Also you eating the gorgeous meat is dreadful, you should be eating grains+ seeds instead! 😅😅😅! I love the impressions , well the effort you make! That meal without the mash I think a beef or spicy pot noodle would be nice added! Q. Why do u not take a Gateshead lad on a riverside walk? He will Felling! Mark!
I’ll do the jokes mate 😂 😂.
Yeah I just bash on. No matter what people think. I’d crack up if I took any real notice 😂 I’m away to church now to confess last nights sins. 👌 😇
@@AndyWardle Nice one Andy! I can't believe people commenting how you should live your life, If they don't want to try those excellent beers fair enough but please don't preach to others, My day of doom I had a bunkhouse to myself, I started cooking some soup then got a pain so had to dash to loo and it took a long time, foolishly I had left pan on , when the alarms sounded I dashed back to turn pan off, the place was full of smoke and was stinking, I opened the windows but still it ponged, Next morning woman came and says are you a still here! Nightmare but the real ale was cracking! Lesson learnt! Wild Camping better than a bunkhouse. Cheers Mark!
Great video and camp andy, never too early for a beer 🍺 and who cares how many you take with you , well deserved after the hike getting there
Aye. I’m not going to worry what folks say. It’s not my regular subs anyway.
To be honest though it’s quite an easy hike up 😂 it’s only less than a mile. But steep. Plus i had a long week at work etc etc
@AndyWardle might give it a go in the summer if I recover from my illness by then, need to get my son out camping more
@@Stephentoutdoors yeah it’s a good one to have a quick camp. 👌
You do you and let the other do them self's 🍺🍺🍺🍺🍻😂
It’s true. Everyone has their own style. 👌
Keep them coming buddy 😊
Hoping to. I’m out again at the weekend. See how that goes 😂 ☔️
Mind blowing videos Andy very well done
Thanks. All I want is a nice calm warm dry night 😂
Andy do you know what I do !! I cook my meat the night before to save on gas mate.👍🏴🏴
Yeah but I like to sit cooking. It relaxes me. Did it again last night. 👌
Also it’s bio ethanol now. It burns for a good 1.5 hours. Also I take a refill bottle of it. 👍
Brilliant Andy.👍🏴🏴
A tad breezy methinks Andy. Great spot though.
Was a little bit like 😂 it needs to stop. 👍
@@AndyWardle Summer’s on the way.
@@dougieranger oh… is it now? 😂 😂
@@AndyWardleWe can only hope brother. Last year was very decent.
04:33 - You crack me up 😂😂
It’s on the Os map now 😂 🗺️
@@AndyWardle Canny little find that pitch by the way. Walked past it loads but never thought there would be even a grassy bit on the top. Away from view as well so a proper hidden gem! Won't get disturbed there 👍🏻
@@DavidMichaelBurnett go back through my vids. I’ve been there before 😉 thumbnail is drone shot of it. 👌
@@AndyWardle Cheers mate I think I've seen the most recent one before this there! 👍🏻 I'll go back through the catalogue though because your videos are bloody great!
Think I've already told you but I'm dying to get into this. I just do the Wainwrights currently, got a wishlist of stuff to buy and just need to go for it.
Too many judgemental people. Do what you want to do. Excellent camp
Don’t worry I do 😂
